κ Opioid Receptor/KOR
kappa-opioid receptor (KOR). DIPPA hydrochloride is an irreversible antagonist that binds covalently to the kappa-opioid receptor, producing long-lasting blockade. It is selective for KOR over micro and delta opioid receptors, although the exact selectivity ratios are not specified. |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Specific in vitro binding affinities (IC50 or Ki values) are not reported in the literature. DIPPA is known to be a high-affinity, selective KOR antagonist that binds irreversibly, resulting in long-lasting receptor blockade. It is used primarily for its in vivo activity as a tool to study the physiological and behavioral roles of KOR without requiring continuous administration.

| ln Vivo |
In Wistar Kyoto rats, DIPPA (2.5 and 5 mg/kg; sc) hydrochloride reduces the latency to feed; however, therapy had no effect on approach latencies in SD rats[2]. The high dose of DIPPA (1 and 5 mg/kg; sc) hydrochloride causes an increase in immobility in SD rats as compared to the group of rats treated with saline[2]. Compared to the 5 mg/kg group of Wistar Kyoto rats, SD rats consume less DIPPA (5 mg/kg) hydrochloride. In both strains, DIPPA hydrochloride dramatically reduces burying time. Burying is reduced in both strains by DIPPA hydrochloride (5 mg/kg) as compared to the within-strain control groups. In SD rats, DIPPA hydrochloride tends to reduce consumption in the home cage but dramatically boosts feeding in the novel cage, where possible anxiolytic-like effects of the substance may counteract its hypophagic effects[2].
In vivo, DIPPA hydrochloride (2.5 and 5 mg/kg; s.c.) decreases the latency to feed in Wistar Kyoto rats but does not alter approach latencies in Sprague Dawley rats. DIPPA (1 and 5 mg/kg; s.c.) at high dose increases immobility in Sprague Dawley rats compared to saline-treated controls. DIPPA (5 mg/kg) decreases burying time in both rat strains. DIPPA can be used for the research of anxiety and antidepressant effects. These effects are mediated by irreversible blockade of KOR. |
| Enzyme Assay |
DIPPA is an irreversible KOR antagonist, so cell-free binding assays typically use a pre-incubation step to allow covalent bond formation. Membranes from CHO-K1 cells expressing human kappa-opioid receptors (or guinea pig brain membranes) are pre-incubated with DIPPA hydrochloride (0.01-10,000 nM) in binding buffer for 60-180 min at 25degC to allow irreversible binding. Unbound compound is removed by washing. Membranes are then incubated with a kappa-selective radioligand (e.g., [3H]-U69,593) under standard equilibrium conditions (60-90 min at 25degC), and the residual specific binding is measured. The degree of irreversible blockade is expressed as percent inhibition of specific binding compared to control. The irreversibility is confirmed by lack of reversibility after extensive washing.

| Cell Assay |
Cell-based functional assays for KOR: CHO-K1 cells stably expressing human kappa-opioid receptors are pre-incubated with DIPPA (0.1-10,000 nM) for 1-2 hours at 37degC. Cells are then washed extensively to remove unbound compound. After washing, cells are stimulated with a KOR agonist (U50,488 or dynorphin A, 1-100 nM). Functional readouts include inhibition of forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation (HTRF assay) or calcium mobilization (FLIPR). The irreversible blockade of KOR is confirmed by persistently reduced agonist responsiveness, even after removal of DIPPA from the medium. Long-lasting antagonism can be assessed over 24-48 hours post-incubation.

| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Wistar Kyoto rats and SD rats (250–300 g)[2]
Doses: 2.5 and 5 mg/kg Route of Administration: Sc Experimental Results: diminished the latency to feed in Wistar Kyoto rats, but treatment did not alter approach latencies in SD rats. Animal/Disease Models: Wistar Kyoto rats and SD rats (250–300 g)[2] Doses: 1 and 5 mg/kg Route of Administration: Sc Experimental Results: High dose increased immobility in SD rats compared to the saline-treated strain control group. DIPPA hydrochloride is administered subcutaneously (s.c.) to male Wistar Kyoto and Sprague Dawley rats at doses of 1, 2.5, and 5 mg/kg. For feeding behavior tests, latency to feed in a novel environment is measured. For anxiety-like behavior, burying time in the defensive burying test is recorded. For depression-like behavior, immobility time in the forced swim test (FST) is measured. DIPPA (5 mg/kg) produces effects consistent with KOR blockade (reduced burying, increased immobility, reduced feeding latency). The duration of action is prolonged (up to 7 days) due to irreversible binding. Control groups receive vehicle (saline). DIPPA should be used fresh and protected from light. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
No specific pharmacokinetic data are reported for DIPPA hydrochloride. The molecular weight is 484.87 (C22H24Cl3N3OS). CAS# 155512-52-0. Purity ≥98%. Storage: -20degC, protected from light and moisture. Solubility: DMSO (>10 mg/mL). DIPPA is poorly soluble in water; formulation for in vivo use may require DMSO or co-solvent mixtures. The irreversible binding to KOR results in a long duration of action, with effects lasting several days after a single subcutaneous injection. Clearance, half-life (t1/2), and volume of distribution are not reported.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
No specific toxicity data are reported for DIPPA hydrochloride. In published animal studies at doses up to 5 mg/kg (s.c.), no signs of acute toxicity (seizures, respiratory depression, severe motor impairment, or mortality) were observed. However, as an irreversible KOR antagonist, DIPPA may have long-lasting effects on KOR-mediated physiological functions, including stress responses, mood, and pain perception. Standard toxicological assessments (hERG, Ames, repeat-dose toxicity) have not been performed. No clinical trials. Not FDA-approved.

| Additional Infomation |
Other information: DIPPA hydrochloride is a research chemical, not FDA-approved. CAS# 155512-52-0. It is an irreversible, long-lasting, selective, and high-affinity kappa-opioid receptor antagonist. DIPPA is useful for studying the role of KOR in neuropsychiatric disorders (anxiety, depression, stress), pain, and addiction. Its long duration of action makes it a valuable tool for prolonged KOR blockade with single administration. Synonyms: DIPPA HCl. For research use only.
